On
December 3rd,
Point Edwards PeeWee
Blackhawks hosted Strathroy Rockets Blue team and
with a six goal second period came out with a 8-1
victory in Lambton-Middlesex league action.
The
Hawks came out strong and forced the play into the
Rockets end which paid off early when Smith scored
from behind the Strathroy net to give the Point an
early 1-0 lead. The Hawks continued the early period
pressure keeping the Rockets off balance allowing
Terpstra to wrap the puck from behind the net one
minute later to take a 2-0 lead. The Rockets finally
got their legs back and kept the Hawks away from
their net for the remainder of the first period.
The
Point got into penalty trouble early as they where
sent to the sin box for tripping. With a man down
and the Point forechecking in the Rockets zone, Best
got the puck and shot a backhander that went off a
Rockets player to give the Point a 3-0 lead. Shortly
after killing the penalty, Strathroy put in a
one-timer in front of a screened Hawks goalie to get
on the board. From that moment on, it was all Point
Edward as the Rockets couldn’t get any breaks.
Hunking put one between the Rockets goalies legs
from a great pass from Smith. Shortly thereafter
Canie scored with a shot from the corner that beat
the Strathroy goalie. Best would get three goals in
the last five minutes of the period. The first would
come by tipping a Riddell slap shot from the
blueline. The second came off a slap shot with
Hocking screening the goalie and the last came with
Best carrying the puck end-to-end to beat a tired
Rockets goaltender.
The
Rockets came out in the third playing a defensive
game and were able to keep the game at 8-1 which is
how it ended.
